Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I also feel extremely cold and afraid of the cold. Could you please explain why my menstrual cycle is irregular after giving birth?Doctor's answer:
Irregular menstruation is a common gynecological disorder. It is characterized by abnormal menstrual cycles or bleeding volume, or abdominal pain and systemic symptoms before or during menstruation. In traditional Chinese medicine, it is generally related to the liver, and treatment is usually based on the Siwu Decoction with modifications. The occurrence of irregular menstruation not only affects the patient's life but can also lead to the development of gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to undergo a vaginal examination in the gynecology department of a hospital to identify the cause and receive symptomatic treatment. Additionally, it is important to pay attention to personal hygiene and maintain cleanliness in the perineal area.
